Illusion

Crimson tears and violet smiles

eyes like a raging ocean

faded lips and broken eyes

remnants of a once perfect illusion


An illusion of bright eyes and smiles

of carefree laughs and happy eyes 

an illusion now shattered

the pieces sprinkled all around


So clean away the broken illusion

and let me wrap you round me

tonight, two broken hearts will beat as one

and secrets will come undone


Tonight, cry all your sorrows away

save that smile for a brighter day

let me kiss those torn pieces away

let me take your worries today


Let me caress your hair

and heal your skin

let me set those burnt out eyes ablaze

and kiss all that scattered pain away


Tonight, I'll hold you firm

and bow to the crown of suffering

I'll love that hurt tonight

I'll love you tonight
